Richard Mermer Guitars:
Rich has been designing, building, and repairing fretted string instruments since 1983, after completing his studies at the Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery in Phoenix, Arizona. While attending the school, Rich was greatly influenced by master craftsman and instructor William Eaton (refer to Acoustic Guitar Magazine, N0.61, pp.64-67). It was from Bill, that Rich learned to let his creative juices flow, and not to worry about building "clones" of popular designs.

After leaving Roberto-Venn, Rich acquired additional experience while working for Fretted Instruments International (the parent company to Oscar Schmidt Autoharps and Washburn Guitars) and Philip Kubicki Guitar Technology of Santa Barbara, California.

These instruments are handcrafted works of art that are built to the specifications of the client. Rich does keep several instruments available as portfolio/demonstration pieces so that potential clients can experience the quality of his work.

Richs instruments have been featured in 'Guitar 2000: Today's State of the Art, Tomorrow's Innovations' (Acoustic Guitar Magazine, August 1998, Issue 68); and in 'The Holey Grail: Why Leading Guitar Makers Are Rethinking Traditional Soundhole Designs' (Acoustic Guitar Magazine, February 1999, Issue 74). Many artists are using Richs instruments in the studio and in live preformance, including Don Conoscenti, Cyril Pahinui, Brooks Williams, John Alevizakis, and Al Scortino ...

Classical Guitars by Kim Hancock luthier, Dane Hancock luthier & Sean Hancock luthier. Australian Classical Guitars Australian Guitars Guitars from Australian luthiers.
Our philosophy is that guitars built in this style have the most pleasing timbre for classical music, while also giving beautiful results to other styles of music ...
What we have found is that if we attempt to come as close as possible to the true sound of a master luthier's work, the result will be a pleasing instrument with strong characteristics of the original and some qualities of our own personal style of construction.
